Hi Ray, knew cars would bring you out. That was a great show, movie bombed I think.

I think it was a Jensen FF????????

Take a look, see what you think, twin headlamps.

How you enjoying the chilly weather up north? Bit nippy down south.

Yes, even the badge looks Aston, but the headlamps are wrong. Maybe Jensen Interceptor?
I will search around.

Horizontal wing vents are wrong too: they're vertical on an Interceptor.

Hi Nettlehead, yes I noticed that. But still going with Jensen. Aston did not have twin headlamps. Will still have do some more searching. See if can find pre 1963 with matching lamps. Jensen, has twin lamps & same bumper etc.

DH agrees with Ray, Aston Martin .. he says look at the vent on the front wing just behind the front wheel, with the chrome bar running through it. And the Jensen Interceptor has a huge rounded rear window, not the fast back like this one. And the badge is clearly Aston Martin.

He calls Aston Martin DBS V-8 (dual headlamps)

I just pulled up same photo 1967 DBS, though strill not exact. The hood badge, certainly looks Aston.

I think Ray is the winner.

Play this & checkout the dashboard shot. Amusing video, maybe little 70's chauvinist for some

Hey! It was the DH who called DBS V8 ... I'll show him when he comes in for lunch.


(I'm actually the one who found it, but I like to give him credit when I can)

I correct myself, was meauxna"DH" Well done. Ray came up with Aston Martin, think that started my search.
I'm 99% convinced, its a DBS V8, but front end is not exact & in the Youtube video, there is an unexplained, shining circle badge on rear boot lid.
